    This seems like its legit

    Also I don't think this happen by mistake, this year's game had had a slow burn of reveals and info that hype has been tampered so dropping a commercial randomly that teases something like McGuire and Sosa with no explanation has generated a bit of a stir.

    Maybe instead of looking at someone making a mistake let's consider this being intentional done

    My belief too. Show a flash of Sosa/McGwire w/o explanation to let the community generate the hype.

    It's not on Twitter though?

    Last year a commercial with randy was removed because it showed him. Funny how it was just one person who saw this commercial, then all the sudden it’s all over twitter and reditt. If it happens cool, but I think it’s a troll job

    I still have doubts but if it is true then McGwire coming in as Pujols goes out will be a nice replacement for Cardinal Fans, plus they can give him an A's version to help out the flashbacks for that team.

    I still want Ted Simmons as a Cardinals catcher though to replace Molina.

    I’m pumped of this is true, and it looks like it is. Opens the door for Bonds, Clemens, etc. I’ve always wanted a Caminiti card, maybe we get it in the future.

    Yeah, I am seeing a lot of comments from people expecting this news to open the door for him to now come into the game as well, but don't think most understand that the situation between Bonds and MLB is way more complicated beyond steroids.

    His godfather is already in the game. I’m sure Bonds can also appreciate the addition of Negro League storylines and legends as a way to educate younger fans. Things like that might go a long way to gaining his blessing.

    No. there was an absolute war between him and the players association after the 73 hrs, not sure but I think it was about the batting titles he won it in 02 with 403 ABs and in 04 with 373 ABs cause pitchers didn't want to pitch to him and with the absurd amount of walks he had over 600 PAs each year, pissed off the players and I believe they filed a grievance with the league and tried to disqualify him for the batting titles, after that he removed himself from the players association and the games.his track record with the media wasn't any better.

    If I had to speculate their best versions (99s), Sosa probably gets an Awards card for his MVP season in 1998 and McGwire probably will be a Milestone card for hitting 72.

    He never hit 72 HR.

    Hahaha, I mean if you’re gonna use a World War 2 reference, you definitely get some credit. I was thinking more along the lines of Eric Bischoff joined WWE and The Ultimate Warrior became a Hall of Famer. Oh and Ben Affleck and J-Lo got back together.

    Actually, let’s just use yours.

    And Affleck decided it was best for all of us that he never reprise his roles as Dare Devil or Batman again (well, after the new Flash movie comes out anyway)...that was kind of him.

    I like the WW2 reference, but we had and still have military forces in both countries.there also was forgiveness and friendship building during this.

    Don't think there has been any of that with Bonds. hard to know for sure,all of them avoid talking about it.

    It’s pretty well known in baseball that he wasn’t a very liked teammate dating back to his ASU days. If he wasn’t the best player in baseball and Bobby’s son early in his career he might have been blackballed.

    I don’t think military occupation and the Marshall Plan are necessary to get Bonds as a legend…just some good will.
